How can we create folders in sharepoint using the outlook email subject line or anything and save the attachment in the same particular folder using power automate. Ex: If any email is received and has attachment, I want to create a folder and save the attachment irrespectively. How it can be possible. Please comment ASAP. Thank you.

    It is likely that you can achieve your goal with Power Automate.  My suggestion is to map out exactly what you want to happen and post here.

    @ScottShearer Thanks for your suggestion, let me try on the same and will update. The problem is I have multiple emails which need to be save on specific folders. Is there a way to create something for multiple attachments from multiple email to save on multiple folders. Hope you can understand. Thank you.

    Can you give it a try using the template that I suggested? 

    If not, how do you want to name the folders?

    @ScottShearer  DO you have any example for the flow which you have discussed. Will be very much thankful.

    You can use the SharePoint create Folder action to create the folder.

    Once the Folder is created, you can loop through the email attachments and save them in the new folder.

    A great way to learn how to save the email attachments is to use the "Save email attachments to SharePoint and delete the email" template.  If you create a Flow from that template, you'll see how to extract attachments from an email and save them to a SharePoint library.  You can edit the Flow - you may want to remove the Delete email step.
